Oriental Flower

A grim euphemism referring to the pervasive and often hidden danger of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in various Asian countries, particularly those impacted by the Vietnam and Korean Wars. The term highlights the significant number of dormant landmines and other explosive remnants of war that continue to litter landscapes, posing a severe threat to civilian populations. The "flower" aspect of the phrase alludes to the appearance of certain mine triggers or fuzes that protrude from the ground, bearing a superficial resemblance to a blooming flower, thus deceptively blending into the natural environment. This term underscores the deadly legacy of conflict and the ongoing humanitarian crisis caused by these unseen hazards.
"In some parts of Southeast Asia, a walk through the fields can be a real minefield of 'Oriental Flowers,' though thankfully, they rarely have much of a fragrance."

Atypical dedicated orientation (or ADO) - when one's sexual or romantic orientation (or both if they are gender- aligned) is atypically centered on a specific person who does not express the gender they are typically oriented to.

Like: You dig your man, but none of those other dudes do it for you at ALL, and really, women, trans, asexual or non-binary folx are where it's at for you sexually and/or romantically. He's the exception to the rule - lucky guy!!

You could use this as a way of articulating your broader orientation. Like: I'm bisexual but have ADO for my husband. I am not gonna be chasing any other cis men if we break up though!
I have ADO (atypical dedicated orientation) for my husband cuz he's the ONLY man I would ever want!
